I'd say you're cutting it uncomfortably close. We had one guy in our class who talked to the instructors and left early at 4PM because of a 6:15PM flight - he missed the passenger lap with an instructor driving, the graduation, and the chance to stand around and talk with the instructors and...
I had a fantastic day yesterday, the weather was great. Was awesome meeting folks and learning how to drive fast. Definitely an experience I'll always remember.
That said, racecar-while-tall is a real problem. For context, I'm 6'6" and this was the first time I've ever done any kind of a...

That's what I got - it's been working flawlessly. It keeps the plate off the paint so there's no scratches and nothing rattles.
Even if I wanted to drop the $10k on the Shelby Edition upgrade for my GT350 (which I'm tempted to since I don't have an R - but the wife has her eye on replacing her car so I'm probably out of luck), having to spend the extra for that doesn't seem worth it in my books.
Tangent:
BBB has absolutely no teeth and is mostly a scam. As someone who's been on the opposite end of it, the BBB basically approaches companies and asks for a payoff to "help make these bad reviews go away" - they have no interest in actually helping the customers nor in ensuring that...
Congrats dude, I saw it on IG earlier this week and immediately thought of you. That's gotta be a huge boost - you guys have definitely got a good thing going!
Thanks - you'll get there! I've actually got a three car garage, it's a standard two car garage off perpendicular to this, then a one-car extra-long & wide garage (it's about 22'x14") that I use for the GT350 and workshop. Ten years ago, a two car garage was on my wish list and a Mustang wasn't...
I winced just looking at your driveway.
Also, can attest that air conditioning is great. I normally try to drive without it and windows down, but sometimes I do give in to the Carolina summer heat.

Upgrade for $10k -- my first thought was "no that's stupid", then I was halfway sold on the cool factor, then thinking about it ... $10k for what looks to be new wheels plus tires, plus the extra bits, that's actually not THAT crazy of a...
It's also worth noting that the GT350 doesn't have the full range of exhaust volumes like a regular Mustang GT does. We have "normal" and "sport" - nothing else.
Do they give you those photos for free or are they part of an upgrade package or something? Those are fantastic photos - would love to print and frame one of those after the class.
To go back to your example -- you can get an $80 bike at Walmart, of course. Why then do people spend $10k on a top end bicycle? It's still a bike, right? You can still ride it.
Quality materials, reliability, durability, attention to detail, features, etc.
Same for headphones. I've got a $300...
